Shin Bet prisoners are often incarcerated and interrogated under unsatisfactory conditions, according to a report to be released on Tuesday by the rights groups B'Tselem and Hamoked.
The report - based on interviews with 121 Palestinians detained in the security service's Petah Tikva detention facility last year - indicates that 645 detainees had filed complaints over the nature of their incarceration and/or interrogation, but that none had led to the opening of a criminal investigation.
Hundreds of detainees are brought to the Petah Tikva facility for questioning every year. After their interrogation, some are transferred to Shin Bet holding facilities to await legal proceedings, and others released without charges filed against them.
The interviewees included four women - one of them 63 years old - and 18 minors. Nearly all the of the respondents reported having been detained in the early morning hours and denied the chance to take personal belongings with them. Some said they hadn't been allowed to get dressed or put on shoes.
